BANGKOK: -- Two Pathum Thani parents have appealed for help after their daughter was allowed to go home from school  with a stranger.

 

The man arrived on a motorbike in the early morning claiming he needed to take the 11 year old girl to do some business with her parents, reported tnamcot.

 

But he took her elsewhere and raped her. Then he took her back to the school at 10am.

 

The man is currently being held in Thanyaburi jail and faces three charges.

 

The parents have appealed to reporters to get action from the school after they were told that they would not release CCTV footage to them.

 

They suspect this is to protect the school who may be trying to help the man for some reason.

 

They say that the school have already admitted that they let their daughter go with the man without checking any ID.

 

The parents have also taken their case to public help group the Paweena Foundation.

 

Investigating sergeant Thert Hannarong of the Nong Seua police said that a man called Somchai Siang-Ek, 21, is in custody and has been refused bail. 

 

They say he has admitted going to the school to pick up a child that he didn't know. He admitted rape in the Klong 14 area and then threatened her with death if she informed on him.

 

He has been charged with rape, abduction and threats made with a weapon.

 

Police are gathering further evidence. It is understood that the accused man was a former pupil of the school where he abducted the child.

Agree totally. Name and shame the place too.

Then put the principal in the same cell as Somchai.

[NongKhaiKid]

There was the mug throwing idiot and then a great story about a smart young teacher picking up on child abuse but now it's back to business as usual.

Cue excuses to explain the issue away and exonerate the school.

[doremifasol]

Poor girl........scarred for life....

 

[z42]

Just awful. I have no words. This rapist should NEVER be let out of jail. The premeditation, the targeting of underage girls, and the lack of any remorse.

Shame Thai prisons don't resemble the latim american ones as this lad's sentence would last only minutes

[Chris Lawrence]

The school has a legal obligation to protect children in their care.

[ezzra]

 

Not surprising... this country has very low regards for grown ups and utter disregards

for safety and common sense, why should it be any different when it comes

to kids?

I'm sure you seen those motorcycles loaded with 3-4 children's on their way to school

or home hanging on like a bunch of monkeys on a coconut tree?.....

[seahorse]

It seems like this kind of thing is happening more and more or is it my imagination? And they need to protect the SCHOOL? What about the kids in the school?

 

How much lower can this society sink?

[DM07]

With every passing day, homeschooling seems a better and better option to me!

There's certainly plenty to question in this story. He didn't know the girl? Then how did he tell the teacher which child he wanted to take away? "Hi, I need to take a young girl to see her parents." "Which girl?" "Oh, I dunno, how about that one over there?" "Oh, sure, that makes sense."

I don't think so.

[whatproblem]

Thai schools are there to make money for the teachers ,learning and safety for the children is an after thought

Well, they don't exactly need to protect the school, but they need to protect themselves from liability. Of course they use the excuse of protecting the school to enlist the cooperation of all the teachers, who must fear for their jobs. It won't work. It never does.

I think the impression that this kind of thing is happening more often is in your imagination.

I think one problem is that you often cannot say NO in Thailand.  So demanding man arrives ...demands child ...some employee who can't say "no" hands one over to him ...and there you go ....

[AlQaholic]

When I was a kid, in my country at least, there was no question of who was responsible for protection of the children going to the school. There simply was no protection because nobody needed it. 

Anyway anybody can pick up a young girl from anywhere and rape her, the fact it happened at the school is just coincidental, yes the school should have protected the girl, but the rapist would have raped at some point anyway. And of course the rapist knew the girl and the girl knew him, otherwise it wouldn't have happened.

Cue the baht to change hands, which will quiet the media and make this go away.

He's likely to have targeted her sick ba$tard probably fancied her 

[Mickmouse1]

Like many kids she must have HP.Why She went with them? Obviously they know each other,else why that particular girl? I Need to know more....

[whatproblem]

The school director or whoever let this shit take the kid  should go to prison for this ,if it was my daughter he would die for this 

[whatproblem]

In England gates are locked so no one can go inside ,this needs to happen here 

[SOTIRIOS]

...bloody insane....

 

...the school will say.... 'it was not their intention for the little girl to be hurt'....

 

..like the teacher that launched a ceramic mug at a student's head...

 

...gotta ask if the rapist doesn't have an accomplice in the school....

Exactly right. Front line staff in LOS have zero decision making authority and are impressionable when somebody shows up and acts like they are higher on the Sakdina ladder. Front line staff are totally unempowered in Siam because managers are totally inept and want all decisions to come to them but when an individual arrives with enough attitude the front line people do not want to cause him to lose face because then their managers would discipline them. Managers are afraid of being replaced if the staff can make decisions. What a conundrum.

[boomerangutang]

What a horrible ordeal for the girl.  The guy should have his nut sack cut off with a rusty blunt knife and thrown in a dark room for 30 or so years.

That is the only way to be certain they get an education instead of an indoctrination, and that goes for schools in every country.

Two Thai families I am close to have changed their routine - mother in both cases stopped work and now totally devoted to protecting their children, personally take the children to school, pick them up, etc. and one family has insisted that the school principal sign a document to guarantee that there will never be any incident like 'mug throwing', and more.

[BruceMangosteen]

There is very little security at Government schools. Students sneak out all the time, over fences etc.. I would assume this criminal knew the girl, called her etc.. "Security" isn't going to intervene. The Director of the school isn't to blame. These things happen in the Western worlds as well. 

[neeray]

Interesting that scumbag child abductor and rapist did not kill her after taking his sick pleasure. 

Perhaps he did not have the brain capacity to consider the consequences of returning her to school (alive). Thank goodness for his pea sized brain, it spared her life. Scarred but spared !
